New Forest Office update



The ball is well and truly rolling with the new Dunster estate forest office! Wedgewood Buildings, our contractors have been on site for a couple of months now doing the ground works, but in the last week or so the buidling has started to shoot up. This photo was taken yesterday, and I suspect by the end of the week that the roof will be on and possibly even tiled- very rapid.

Forest Operations Feb 2012



We are currently thinning the woodland in the Longcombe area of the forest- see map. Thinning enables the remaining trees to grow bigger, and lets light into the forest floor. It also generates timber to go to UK timber mills for making a wide range of wooden produce. Please observe any signs or directions given on site, keep your dog under close control at all times when near a work site and do not get too close to working machinery.
